Mike and I have been planning our retirement for many years. One of our dreams was to live and travel the United States in our Motorhome. It came true the end of Dec. 2007. Mike is 64 and I'm younger. We travel with our cats Stormy, better known as Evil Kitty and Lucy a new addition in 2011. Lucy is known as the good kitty. We could not imagin living any where but in our MH. After almost 5 years on the road we enjoy it as much as when we started.

A Cloudy Day At The Lake

Tuesday March 26th Big Balsam Lake, Grand Rapids, MN

The last of the friends have departed for home. The campground is empty, but 4 of the cabins have people staying the week. Then this weekend the cabins fill up again. The Cabins are rented Sat to Sat. Not sure about the campground, most people just show up for the weekend.

It has been cloudy 2 days in a row, sure hope the sun comes out soon. The temp only made it to 57. Jackets are the order of the day I guess.

Such a quiet place to be. Mike and I went for a walk after dinner, and then sat on the dock and listened to the loons on the lake. Tomorrow he plans to hook up the Direct TV, there goes our quiet evenings.

I cleaned the laundry room and got that ready for guests. Mike was on the roof of the boat house fixing a couple of vents. That was about it for our chores for the day. Should be busier Wednesday.

I did get the house listed for rent on Craig's list last night. Just have to wait for the phone to start ringing. Having that rented will take a load off Mike, he worries about it sitting empty. He would rather sell it, but that just is not an option right now, with the real-estate market the way it is.

The fish still are not biting, just a few here and there. I don’t care how many fish we catch, in fact I hope we catch a ton. I’m out of the fish cleaning business for the next 24 years. Mike has a lot of catching up to do.
